The purpose of this study is to find optimal conditions for various outlet clearances of prototype garlic clove separator with a rotating cone in the constant inlet clearance and cone height. Optimal outlet clearance from medium to small size garlics was 25 mm at the range of 200~400 rpm. For large garlic, optimal outlet clearances of Namdo and Uiseong garlic were 34 mm and 37 mm, respectively, in the range of 300~400 rpm. The proportion of garlic separation was over 95% for all quality of garlics. The proportions of damaged garlics at 25 mm and 28 mm outlet clearances were below 5% and below 10%, respectively.
